You Can Help Underprivileged Kids See A WRINKLE IN TIME for Free

We think next month’s big screen adaptation of the beloved literary classic A Wrinkle In Time will have a cultural significance that transcends most films, in the same way Wonder Woman and Black Panther have. But we’re not the only ones who believe it will prove important and meaningful to so many, which is why a new partnership between Color of Change organization and AMC Theatres will be sending underprivileged kids to see it for free. And you can help make it happen.

The non-profit Color of Change, “the nation’s largest online racial justice organization,” is currently running its “Give a Child the Universe” campaign to make sure as many kids and teenagers as possible get to attend a screening of A Wrinkle in Time free of charge at AMC Theatres next month.

“Give A Child The Universe” encourages individual and group benefactors to purchase and donate tickets to the movie, enabling underprivileged children to see A Wrinkle in Time at a matinee showing at a local AMC Theatres location beginning March 9. Using the donations, Color of Change will distribute tickets to a host of local partners, schools, and community-based organizations, allowing children to enjoy this highly anticipated film about empowerment and family on opening day.

For every ten dollar contribution, AMC will provide one ticket. So for as little as what you might spend on coffee for two days, you can personally make sure one kid who might not otherwise be able to afford it gets to see the movie. That’s a pretty cheap price to give a child the universe. You can donate at Color of Change here; the campaign runs through March.

A Wrinkle in Time arrives in theaters on March 9.
